Verse 1:
F#maj9 G#m9/C# G#m7/C# [continue]
Summer turns the stove on
And fun begins to cook
Barefoot walks in Baltimore
With empty pocketbook
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/s/strawberry-alarm-clock/18571.html ]
Laugh at sizzling sidewalks
Don't step on the cracks
Old folks try to catch their breath
As children catch their jacks

Verse 2:
Gmaj9 Am9/D Am7/D [continue]
Baltimore is music
Dancing in the street
Half-chewed Dubble Bubble
Tugging at our feet
Melted tar in crosswalks
Crab shells in the park
Pavement frying our poor toes
Until long after dark
[repeat chorus]
Bridge:
Em7 Cm7
When night comes we can go walking
Gmaj9 A13
On the shores of Chesapeake Bay
Am9 D9
A silence tailored for talking
G#6 G#m7/C#
And a love with so much to say
[repeat intro]
[repeat chorus 1]
Coda [repeat to fade]:
(vibes solo)
Gmaj9 Am9/D Am7/D Gmaj9 Am9/D Am7/D
